First Meeting with the Golden Dragon King

This fear came not only from the giant dragon's terrifying strength, but also from its bloodline.

Feng Xiu was the ruler of the Heaven-defying Demon Dragon Clan. No one in the Demon Race could suppress him through bloodline, yet the giant dragon before him made Feng Xiu experience the pain of bloodline suppression for the first time.

"My name is the Golden Dragon King, the incarnation of the Dragon God, ancestor of all dragons. Little one, why have you come here?"

The Golden Dragon King did not speak, but his thoughts entered Feng Xiu's mind directly.

Feng Xiu dropped to one knee and said respectfully, "This junior is Feng Xiu, from the Holy Demon Continent, the clan chief of the Heaven-defying Demon Dragon Clan. This junior was accidentally swept into a turbulent current. When I regained consciousness, I had arrived here."

"Holy Demon Continent, Heaven-defying Demon Dragon Clan... So that was it. No wonder you carry the aura of the Dragon Race, though it is extremely faint."

Feng Xiu asked cautiously, "Why did you lead this junior into this tower, my lord?"

"I have been lonely for too long. I merely wanted to find a living creature to talk to."

Though the Golden Dragon King's tone was calm, Feng Xiu could still hear his helplessness and loneliness.

"I have been sealed within this tower for hundreds of thousands of years. So far, you are the first member of the Dragon Race to speak with me."

Feng Xiu asked in confusion, "With your strength, my lord, could anyone in this world really seal you?"

The Golden Dragon King narrowed his eyes slightly, and a flash of sternness passed through them.

"Little one, do you still remember the Dragon God?"

Feng Xiu nodded. "The great Dragon God is the ancestor of all dragons. This junior will never forget."

Although the first Demon God Emperor had merely been the artifact spirit of a Demon God Pillar, he had also been a Dragon Race member who truly existed. Based on the memories passed down by his ancestors, Feng Xiu naturally knew of the Dragon God's existence, though that was all he knew. He knew nothing else about the Dragon God.

"Back then, the Dragon God led the divine beasts in launching a war in the God Realm. The five God Kings joined forces and defeated the Dragon God, who was split in two and became the Golden Dragon King and the Silver Dragon King. To cover the Silver Dragon King's escape, I fought the five God Kings alone. In the end, I was defeated and sealed in this tower within the Divine Forbidden Land. The Silver Dragon King escaped the God Realm along with the space-time turbulence, and no one knows where he went."

Feng Xiu lowered himself even further. So the Golden Dragon King was part of the Dragon God. No wonder he had called himself the ancestor of all dragons. Feng Xiu became even more respectful toward him.

"Is there anything this junior can do for you?"

The Golden Dragon King gave a bitter smile. "What can a mere member of the Dragon Race like you do for me? Keeping me company and easing my boredom is already the greatest help you can give me."

"This junior is willing to serve," Feng Xiu said respectfully.

"Rise. I permit you to speak while standing. Tell me about your story."

"Yes."

Feng Xiu slowly rose to his feet, but he still did not raise his head to look at the Golden Dragon King.

Feng Xiu recounted everything he had experienced on the Holy Demon Continent, focusing on how he had led the Demon Race in launching the Holy War against humanity.

"Holy Demon Continent, God of Damnation..."

The Golden Dragon King murmured to himself and fell into deep thought.

Feng Xiu lowered himself again. He knew that the Golden Dragon King must have something to say.

"So the God of Damnation had reincarnated on the Holy Demon Continent. That was no surprise. After all, that plane was the world the Creator God had been most satisfied with. But why did that plane not permit the existence of gods?"

Feng Xiu asked in astonishment, "You know of the God of Damnation as well, my lord?"

"The Dragon God possessed both the Genesis Godhood and the Destruction Godhead, and the Destruction Godhead came from the God of Damnation. In order to destroy the God Realm, the God of Damnation bestowed the Destruction Godhead upon the Dragon God. The Dragon God thus became even more powerful, but he also fell into madness, triggering the war in the God Realm. After that, the God of Damnation vanished once again."

"I never expected that the God of Damnation would ultimately fail to escape the Creator God's scheme and perish on the Holy Demon Continent. Had he chosen another plane, perhaps he would have had a chance. The Holy Demon Continent retained the Creator God's divine will. The Long Haochen you mentioned was the Creator God's representative, the Child of Destiny."

"From the moment the God of Damnation formed a Blood Contract with Long Haochen, he had already fallen into the Creator God's trap. Rather than saying he died by suicide, it would be more accurate to say that he died at the hands of the Creator God and his representative's scheme."

Feng Xiu nodded in deep agreement. In the battle outside Dragon Resisting Pass, if Long Haochen had not used brotherly affection to awaken the God of Damnation's other eight heads, the God of Damnation's plan to destroy the world would likely have succeeded. So all of this had been arranged by the Creator God.

"Little one, do you wish to rewrite history?" the Golden Dragon King suddenly asked.

Feng Xiu raised his head slightly in surprise. Could things that had already happened truly be changed?

"By chance, the Dragon God obtained the Time-Space Stone. According to its user's wishes, the Time-Space Stone could turn back time, and its effect would absolutely take hold. Its limitation was that it could only alter the space-time of a single plane, and deviations might occur in the timeline to which time returned. If you are willing, I can give you one opportunity—an opportunity to start over."

Feng Xiu's blue eyes lit up at once. If he could start over, he would never let down Bai Lingxuan, nor would he allow the Demon Race to perish.

"This junior is willing!"

Feng Xiu's soul trembled slightly, unable to restrain the excitement in his heart.

"I believe that with your talent and wisdom, if you start over, you will surely achieve your ideals. But I will not help you without conditions."

"Long Haochen is the Child of Destiny chosen by the Creator God. He is destined to inherit part of the Creator God's power. Once he grows to the Divine Realm, bring him to the Divine Forbidden Land to find me. I need the Creator God's power within him to break the seal."

"Besides Long Haochen, the God of Damnation can also help me break the seal. For the great cause of reviving the Dragon Race, I hope you can set aside past grievances and befriend Long Haochen and the God of Damnation, so they may help me escape this seal."

"After the God Realm war, humanity deprived beasts of the chance to become gods. As the ancestor of all dragons, I must shatter the shackles humanity has placed upon us. Therefore, whether for the Dragon Race or for yourself, you must succeed."

Feng Xiu knocked his head heavily against the ground, clenched his fists, and answered, "This junior will not fail the mission!"

The Golden Dragon King opened his mouth and spat out a stone shining with seven-colored light. It appeared before Feng Xiu. Feng Xiu used the power of his soul to attach the Time-Space Stone to himself. At the same time, a ray of golden light merged into Feng Xiu's soul.
